MEDITATION

When was the last time any of us were willing to wait upon the LORD all the day long? Oh how we fall short. Thankfully, God is gracious and full of compassion for us. But that does not excuse us from pursuing more of Him. In order to be led and taught truth, one must place his or herself in the presence of the Teacher. Today, turn everything off that distracts and listen to your Father. The question is never is He speaking, but are we listening?
